Additional Details:
Born in the Grand River region of what is now South Dakota, about 1834. His father, Jumping Bull, and uncles, Four Horns and Hunting-His-Lodge all were Sioux Chiefs. As a young man he displayed hostility toward the white man and thus gathered a following, but was repudiated by the tribal leaders who wanted to maintain peaceful relations with the government. Sitting Bull was killed in an Indian uprising December 15, 1890. He was buried in the Fort Yates Cemetery, but later reinterred near Mobridge, South Dakota.
